Reading values from adjacent blocks?

Hello there!

I'm an aspiring ComputerCrafter, and I've stumpled upon a problem.

Basically what I want to know is, whether it is possible to read values from other blocks (for example, would it be possible to read EU in an MFE from Industrial Craft)? The idea would be to paste EU on a monitor, so I wouldn't have to manually check my power supply all the time.

I did a bunch of google-fu, but to no avail.

Any help would be much appreciated, even if it consists of saying "no, that's not possible".

Thank you very much in advance!

I believe you can do that with the CC-Sensors peripheral mod for ComputerCraft. Check the Peripheral Library section on this forum.
